Hello people,
My guild has been having trouble on the second boss with various group setups and the main problem we are encountering is that suddenly during the fight half our group is being one shot for no reason or that adds appear but cannot be seen by the group and then killing us.
Does anyone here have some tips on how to avoid this situation or possibly have this problem too? It's getitng extremely annoying and we haven't been able to work around it for multiple weeks.
Second question
Besides this I have a second question and this is as following, what is the best strategy to make sure you are out of the chainspinner *** whenever it drops? We have used a strategy where we always went right whenever the *** dropped and we have also used the strategy where we try to move back whenever the *** dropped. But what is working best and what could help us get this boss down?

✭stack up right at tank, with healer at the back, use nova and negate, you will probably need 3 negates and 2 nova depending on your dps. dont move at all
like a zerg ball in pvp

Denaia✭✭✭✭Well keep in mind that we aren't going with a group where everyone is using destro staff & resto staff, that means our overall dps will be lower then a group that actually does this. Is this tactic viable for a group with 'lower' dps too? (can't say how high it exactly is)0

✭yeah as long as you can keep nova and negate up at the right time, those are crucial to making this happen0 -

And how many sorceror's should we take for this?0 -

✭when I do this as the healing sorcerer I can keep negate up always at the right time, since all I do is spam healing springs and that fast to charge my ultimate, but ill say at least two, one for back up if its a new sorcerer that first need to learn to use healing springs.
and thats all he has to do in this fight, keep spamming healing springs and negate when its needed0 -
Denaia✭✭✭✭Ok so, let's say my group takes 2 templar healers that use nova to keep us alive and we have 2-3 sorceror dps to cast negate magic that should basically get us the fight done?
Besides that do we just target the boss or do we also kill the chainspinners? And I assume we still use siege shield for boulder?0 -

exactly this, but 2 additions....
1. dont use Negates untill the Chain aoe is on the ground
2. kill chain spinners as they pop up (they have a nasty cast cleave that can 1 shot your whole group.
3. use siege shield during the rock throw phaseVokundein

Mahogany✭✭✭You're forgetting a nightblade with veil of blades. Everything else has been outlined above. This fight is mostly about damage mitigation with novas, remembrances, negates, and veils - with healers spamming healing springs in between novas, etc.0
